Review for Nitro 2 Go Mega Shot--Sweet Berry

Only
place I’ve seen this is at Maverick’s gas stations out west.Good news if you’re looking to get your
hands on it and live near one of these, bad news if not.

APPEARANCE/PRESENTATION—3

They
just don’t get any more generic than this.Huge words in a plethora of different fonts and a cheesy
sunburst pattern in the background make this one look shoddier than most.Only thing that calls your attention to
it and keeps it from fading into the background with the rest of the overly
flashy impulse buys at the counter is that it’s one freaking huge shot—kind of
hard to pass over a shot that’s towering over its competitors, at least in the
literal sense.

TASTE—4

When
Big Red Boots told me that I would find at least as many 5 Hour Energy clones
in shots as I did Red Bull clones in drinks, I was almost loath to believe it,
especially after actually trying one and tasting how bad it was.Well, I’m starting to find that such is
indeed the case, this Sweet Berry shot being an example.It’s as fake and medicinal tasting as
any energy shot out there, but tastes perhaps a hair better—mainly because they
get to dilute the generally bitter energy ingredients in four ounces of
liquid.Still, in terms of taste,
it’s nothing that I’d be in any hurry to get a hold of.

KICK
(INTENSITY)—9.5

You looking for a serious shot?Nitro 2 Go Mega Shot—Sweet Berry is a
really freaking serious shot.In
terms of energy, it is definitely one of the more intense ones out there—I’d
compare it to either of the 5 Hour Energy Extra Strength shots, except with more
jitters.

KICK
(DURATION)—10+

I
didn’t get the advertised 14 hours out of this shot…but I did get 10.And let me tell you—they were very, very jittery.Did observe a crash after the fact, but
nothing really worthy of any extended scorn.

THE SHOT OVERALL—8.17

Like
the convenience of energy shots?Need a big freaking bucketload of energy?Don’t care what your energy-delivering agent tastes like?Nitro 2 Go Mega Shot—Sweet Berry is
definitely the way to go.
